Goal of the Week #30 Update Your Bio

This week’s goal: Update your bio. In this competitive work environment, it’s important to keep your bio and work experience up-to-date. This week, schedule time to look at all the places where you post your work experience – your resume and your website bio, as well as your LinkedIn and other social media profiles.

Make sure you last job is accurate and add any new skills, accomplishments, and organizations or clubs. Also, update your headshot, press clips, or work examples, and anything else that might be relevant.

Try to do a check of your bio and resume at least once a season. It’s helpful – and more professional – to have your most accurate information at the ready for potential employers as well as people who want to do business with you.

What People Are Saying

Debra led a goal-setting workshop for a diverse group of women journalists in Miami, of which I am the chair. The workshop's aim was to help participants begin the year with a clear idea of short- and long-term goals, ensuring 2016 is a positive, productive year. Debra was a fantastic workshop leader. She clearly knows how to help guide people in their personal and professional goals, and to make them feel energized in the process. We each left with a plan in hand and a desire to get started.
What I appreciated most about working with Debra was her positive energy and natural interaction with the group. Even though we were over a dozen women, Debra personalized the experience for everyone.
